Not the mask, not the pose, but the flicker behind your eyes — the part you try to hide but can’t unshine.

About the collection: MIDNIGHT SWIM

Wherever you go, you take yourself with you. There’s no escaping it. No hiding. Especially when what’s inside is an ocean—
an ocean of power, anxiety, and raw creative energy. An ocean where light and darkness coexist.
The MIDNIGHT SWIM series wasn’t calculated or planned. It surfaced on its own—like a memory, a vision, a sudden explosion. When you spend too long trying to stay “normal,” trying to contain yourself, something deeper starts to build. And eventually, it breaks through.
That’s when the images began to emerge. Strange. Almost alien. Like visitors from another world — but born from within, from the dark waters of the subconscious. This isn’t just a series of paintings. It’s a journey through inner worlds. A plunge into the unknown. A midnight dive. Where the noise fades, and all that remains is you — raw, unfiltered, real.
MIDNIGHT SWIM isn’t about escape. It’s about encounter.
With your power.
With your shadow.
With yourself.
